http://mi2n.com/press.php3?press_nb=174500

Trey McLaughlin Music (TMM) announced today that Bulletproof Snow’s (BPS) Sophomore CD release will be launched by an event taking place at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 28th at 59 West in Highland, MI.

Bulletproof Snow, one of Metro Detroit’s fastest rising rock artists will headline the event and be joined by other local artists to be announced in the coming weeks. Doors open at 7:00 p.m. with music beginning around 8:00 for an evening of rock/alternative/modern rock. This is an ALL AGES event with tickets available at the door for just $5. The show is presented by Trey McLaughlin Music and The Inner Light Agency (iLA).

A (4) piece teen rock band that began in 2012 in Hartland, MI BPS is quickly gaining visibility both locally and nationally. Winning a performance spot in the Rockstar UPROAR festival at DTE Energy Music Theatre in August 2013, the band was also nominated and was among the top 5 artists in two categories at the 2014 Detroit Music Awards. Most recently playing showcases in March 2014 in Austin TX during the SXSW music festival, BPS also performed at Revolution Live in Ft. Lauderdale, FL in May 2014 during the Driven Florida Music Conference.

This event will deliver the same high energy Modern Rock that BPS is known for while showcasing the songwriting diversity that is characteristic of Trey McLaughlin. Similar to the band’s debut EP release in 2013, this new music is an interestingly diverse range of memorable melodic rock songs with a track or two bordering on rock/pop that will likely appeal to a whole new audience. Fans attending the June 28th show will be among the first to hear the new music and will receive a copy of the (6) song CD “Here We Come” (recorded at Metro 37 Studios).

The Inner Light Agency is a longstanding band management & artist development firm ran by Damon Moreno and Bruce Swink (Former Roadrunner Records) and based in Los Angeles, CA.

Metro 37 Studios is Detroit’s premier recording studio in Rochester Hills, MI offering full-service recording, mixing and mastering.

59West is an entertainment complex located at 786 Highland Road, Highland, MI featuring a health and fitness facility, sports bar and billiards, and a full service banquet facility.

Trey McLaughlin Music is the Hartland, MI based music artist management and publishing company for Bulletproof Snow.

Rave On! Teen Rocker Takes The (Buddy) Holly Prize

http://mi2n.com/press.php3?press_nb=174502

Jack Skuller is the 2014 recipient of the Holly Prize, an award made possible by the Songwriters Hall of Fame and Songmasters as a tribute to the legacy of Buddy Holly, a Hall of Fame inductee. Skuller says, "Buddy Holly left such a huge mark on everything I know about music and I am beyond honored and thrilled to receive such a prestigious award."

In recognition of receiving this distinguished award, indie label Mint 400 Records will reissue Skuller's EP "Tell Me Your Heart" on June 24, 2014. American Songwriter Magazine called the title track "analog, vintage, and cool, but with a sincerity missing from a lot of the ironic throwback recordings of the hipster sphere."

Skuller's 2010 debut single "Love Is A Drum" on Bar/None garnered rave reviews in the press and brought him to the attention of Radio Disney executives who gave him the opportunity to tour the U.S. and meet new fans around the country. Now 18, Skuller is preparing to release a new single later this year on Mint 400 Records produced by GRAMMY nominated Joel Hamilton who has worked with Pretty Lights, the Black Keys and Tom Waits.
